Implement Automated Build, Test, and Deployment Pipeline

[A-Akhil]

Current project lacks automated build and deployment pipeline. Need comprehensive CI/CD implementation for automated testing, quality checks, and release management.

Technical Requirements:

• Create GitHub Actions workflows for automated builds
• Implement automated testing pipeline with test result reporting
• Add code quality checks (linting, static analysis, security scanning)
• Create automated APK building and signing for releases
• Implement branch protection rules and PR validation
• Add automated dependency vulnerability scanning

Implementation Details:

• Create .github/workflows/ci.yml for continuous integration
• Add automated Gradle builds with caching for faster execution
• Implement test execution with coverage reporting using JaCoCo
• Add Detekt for Kotlin code analysis and style checking
• Create automated APK generation with proper signing for releases
• Implement dependency checking with Dependabot or similar tools

Hi Sir! I’d love to work on implementing this CI/CD pipeline. I’m comfortable with GitHub Actions and Gradle, and I’ve previously worked with tools like JaCoCo for test coverage and Detekt for static analysis. I can set up end-to-end workflows covering linting, testing, APK builds, and signing, along with PR validations and dependency checks.

Excited to contribute to strengthening the DevOps workflow of the project. Please let me know if you'd like me to focus on any specific part first!

Hi @suto6
I’ve submitted a PR for the CI/CD pipeline implementation, but I’m not sure if everything has been configured correctly. The workflow appears in the Actions tab, but it shows “Workflow runs completed with no jobs” — so I think I may have missed something.

Could you please review it and guide me if any changes are needed?

Thanks a lot for your time and support!

Hey! I’ve raised a PR for this issue here: #55. It includes build, test, JaCoCo coverage, Detekt linting, and artifact uploads. Let me know if there’s anything that needs to be changed.

Hi, I’ve been trying to work on this issue but I’m running into some environment/setup problems which are taking me longer than expected. I’ll keep trying, but just wanted to give an update in case it’s urgent for the project.
